barack obama is two things. he's a republican realist, number one, and he was ideological, more disciplined version of george bush. he has monopolized the territory of the republican party foreign policy but as one of the reasons i think that it's proven to be so contentious bidding it's not about chuck hagel at all it is about republicans trying to struggle on the fact that they need to somehow reset back to syria. the tragedy seems to me is this so much blood has flowed that it's impossible to imagine the negotiated transition and not enough to trivialize 60,000 dead and hundreds of thousands with life crippling injuries to force the divided self-centered destructive international community to emerge the unified policy but this is not barack obama. i voted for the republicans and democrats. i work for republicans and democrats. the notion that somehow he is responsible for this or that an early intervention would have prevented the radicalization, the fact is decentralization is the subtext of the air of -- ar

but obama has publicly, at least, advanced a hawkish position. so she seems to be walking in tandem with him there. so you know it isn't really clear if she had been left to her own devices or if obama had played richard nixon and made her his kissinger, whether she would have taken positions very different from his. as it is, because she was the implementer she tried to carve out some areas of her own, networking, public diplomacy, and working on women's issues. but even in those areas, including women's issues, i'm not sure how lasting the impact is going to be. for example, if we pull completely out of afghanistan all the games that women have made, maybe lost. >> susan glasser, quick final thoughts. >> well, i guess we're all going to be talking about hillary clinton for some time to come. we are have four years to wait and speculate to see whether she runs for president or not. >> suarez: susan glaser, trudy rubin, thank you both. >> woodruff: and to the analysis of shields and brooks-- syndicated columnist mark shields and "new york times"
